1- WHO AM I? Give clues about people who have been introduced to this point. Children are to write on a piece of paper the answers. Then give clues about John the Baptist. Have children call back answers. Junior children will have option to do other welcome activities below. Image is by Phillip Martin Clipart

2-MOVEMENT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. This balloon rocket whooshes across the room. Take a small tube and thread it onto a smooth rope. Stretch the rope across the room. Inflate the balloon and stick it to the tube with tape or masking tape. Let go of the balloon. We can’t see Jesus–just like air. Yet he is with us through the Holy Spirit. Without God we are like a balloon without air.

3-THAT'S TEMPTING. Definition of tempt is to try to get a person take an action that is wrong. Post five pieces of paper around the room. “One” means it is not tempting at all. “Five” means it is highly tempting. Read out temptations. Children rate how tempting the situation is by standing next to one of the numbered papers. Example, obey parents or guardians. Junior class can play 'yes, no' with 'yes, 'no' cards - ask them silly questions and questions if they obey. Do you clean up your toys, Can pigs fly, Do you brush your teeth?

4-WATER JUG RELAY: Divide the children into teams and give each team a large bowl of water, a spoon, and a pot. Set a timer for the amount of time you want the game to last. Each team player will take his turn in spooning some water into the pot and then take the spoon back to the next player who will then go and spoon water into the pot. Continue until the timer runs out. The team with the most water in their pot is the winner!
